High on many Subaruphiles' wish list is a new two-door WRX STI, and the Japanese manufacturer might just be working on such a model. A two-door WRX-looking, highly camouflaged mule was recently spotted testing in the Ann Arbor, Mich., area. Subaru has a research-and-development facility in Ann Arbor.

Subaru officials would not comment on the prospects for a 2014 WRX coupe, saying no such model is in the plans for the near future.

The mule could have been testing an engine and suspension package for the much-rumored, but not yet official, STI version of the BRZ.

Whatever it is, there was no mistaking the boxer-engine exhaust note, which is much more difficult to camouflage than the sheetmetal car body.
